The Minivan

The entire crew is all back together this week. We get some good sports talk in this week, between the restart of hockey and the coaching carrousel in the NFL, and the guys rip on Sean’s Lakers. The guys have spent a lot of time in some sports bars watching bowl games and playoffs with other sports fans, which don’t have the class and tact that we exude. We discuss the finer points of how to watch sporting events in a public forum. Berg can’t pick a topic, so Sean revisits something he forgot from last week’s episode, the Portland International Car Show. Berg finally gets his head on straight and asks the guys whom their favorite “supporting role” in a comic book is. Which leads into a discussion, which we’re sure we’ve had on this show, “who played Batman/Bruce Wayne the best?” And as we come close to the close of our first year, we discuss possibly changing the name of the podcast.

“General” Mills and Sean’s “Special Lady Friend” join us again this week. We start with our standings on Movember. Both Lance and Sean are participating, but Lance thinks Sean might have broken a rule, so Sean gives a run down to the rules. We then describe what the perfect Inception cookie would be. Leave a comment below for what the ingredients would be in your Inception cookie. Sean and Lance try to go back to their roots and start a discussion on current comics they’re reading, but are sidetracked by the lack of interest from the peanut gallery. We pull the conversation to comic book movies so they can be included. Which leads us to the elephant in the room, the acquisition of Lucasfilms by Disney. Berg, a Star Wars enthusiast gives us the break down between what is and is not Star Wars canon. While on the topic of movies, Lance gives us his rules on movie going etiquette. With Mills’ recent move to Portland, the guys cover their early holiday plans.

General Mills

So there were five Tuesdays in October, and much to Sean’s chagrin, this is a special bonus episode. Sean’s old college buddy, Mills, joined us this week. Halloween is coming up tomorrow, but parties have been happening since Friday night. Sean and Mills recap their party escapades from Saturday night…booze, karaoke, and cleavage. Out of that list Berg and Lance latch on to the karaoke. Lance doesn’t sing it and Berg goes on a tirade about Journey. The rain has returned to Oregon, which means kickball is over and indoor activities have commenced. The guys go through a few things that get them through the dreary days. Finally, NBA tip off is tonight, so the boys all weigh in with their picks for the season…and this time Sean doesn’t put any money on it.

God Forgives Bacon

This week’s episode starts a little flat due to our abnormal recording time. However, we jump right into it by posing a question to you the listener, “What should the house rules be for phone usage when recording outside the bar?”. Leave your comments below, and we’ll pick the best one for our new rule. We quickly digress into the re-watchability of certain movies. Finally we get back on topic and tallied the total experience points that Sean received during his Level Up celebration. From there we recap the epic collapse of 3 of the top 5 teams in college football. Which leads into NBA preseason and MLB post season, which Sean does not acknowledge exists. Berg brings in a little culture by previewing the Portland Tattoo Expo, while Sean previews his actual birthday weekend, visiting friends and family in LA. Berg and Lance are excited for the new movie Argo, and discuss the evolution of Ben Affleck, highlights and misfires, both acting and directing.

Technical Difficulties

Don’t be alarmed that this episode is a little short. We had some sound issues, and we had to cut the episode about halfway through. As for what actually made the cut, Lance recaps his day of drinking at work, which included a Dirty Girl Scout. Sean, Money, and Tucker spent some time day drinking as well at the Mississippi Street Fair, while Lance recovered at home. Before Money joined the motley crew and the Street Fair, he helped out vampires everywhere by giving blood. Afterwards, Tucker and Sean checked out a Film School PDX recommended screening of The Wizard of Oz. We finish off with a question from Tucker, “What is the most epic thing you can think off?” We don’t think Sean quite understood the question.
